Sure, we love watching and even waving to the cute critters in zoos and aquariums. But sometimes, we wish that we could hang out and maybe—just maybe—be besties with the animals. You know, without the fear of being eaten and all. Well, Keikyu Aburatsubo Marine Park in Japan has the next best thing. Check out that picture above.

Now, before you go, “Oh, it’s just a regular picture of an otter. Meh.” Look again. This aquarium lets you can shake hands with an otter. We repeat: Shake. Hands. With. An. Otter!! Now excuse us as we put ourselves together after exploding from cuteness overload. That little guy hit our squee quota for the day.
